I thought the 2005 didn't have LATCH in the third row? Didn't it just have one (movable) tether anchor on the back sill? I could be wrong about that.

2006-2010 has one set of LATCH, but I think the tether anchor is also on the sill (or hatch or whatever it's called), so depending on the tether set-up in a 2004, you might not even have a top tether for the lower anchors.

I might be making all that up though. And that assumes the benches are interchangeable, which I'm not sure of. Can they even be removed?

Hi, while there is a third row center set of LATCH in the 2005 model year Odyssey, you're not going to gain more top tether anchors for the third row over what you can do with your 2004 model in terms of top tether anchors, even if you do find out the third rows are switchable between an '05 and '04 (I'm thinking they aren't compatible due to the changes between generations size-wise). And Honda allows LATCH installs up to 40 lbs. (child weight) so you're going to need to use the seatbelt to install a carseat for a child weighing 40 lbs. and up. There is a top tether for the third row center position in the third row in the 2005 model Ody, but that tether anchor is on the tailgate sill, not on the third row seatback, and it's not movable to an outboard third row position, so there's no net gain in swapping the third row from a 2005 model into a 2004 on that front. You actually have the ability to add to more top tether anchors to the rear tailgate sill in the 2004 model year for the third row outboard positions (using Honda part number 82410-SE3-C01, called a plate assembly by Honda and retailing for about $13 from Honda dealerships or slightly less online if you google the part number), which you cannot do at all for the 2005 model year Odyssey.
